  1. I'm going to try to reduce or eliminate my dairy intake. I can get vitamin D from the sun and calcium from vegetables. I plan to drink green tea instead of milk. Is there any type of beverage that promotes healing? What else is recommended that I eliminate while I still have symptoms?
  2. I've heard many bad things about milk. I'm wondering if the 1% milk I've been drinking is causing my symptoms to be worse. I've been gluten free for awhile now, at least 2 months. I tried going milk free and my symptoms seems to be improving faster. I know if the digestive track is under strain, you basically become intolerant to lactose.
  3. Where do I get cheap gluten-free flour mix? I've seen $6 for a small amount of gluten free flour at Wegman's.
  4. Yes Craig's list does, I just bought something new from Craig's 3 days ago.
  5. Thanks Mamaw, I'm going to see if I can buy a brand new bread machine on craig's list.
  6. Hi, I have an older bread machine which I want to put in operation. I'm sick of paying over 5$ at Whole Paycheck for tapioca bread. What's your favorite gluten free bread recipe that can be made in a bread machine?
  7. Most of my favorite food was pasta dishes. I'm an Italian so my family is upset about the no gluten mess, I mean diet.
  8. No way? Are you saying gluten is addicting? There is little hope for my dad trying the diet with me. My dad is a very comfort seeking person. If a new food does not taste that good but is good for him, it takes a lot of work for him to even give the new food a try. I can't get my dad to switch from whole milk to 2% milk because my dad's dad would...
  9. I don't have a lot of extra money so I try to avoid seeing extra professionals, in this case a nutritionist. For the same reason I avoid supplements. I'm just going to go gluten-free and listen to my body. Hopefully my digestive system is still intact enough that I'm not suffering from any malnutrition.
  10. Young male here. I've had problems working out. In fact the reason I decided to go gluten free in the first place was because I was having trouble working out. I tried increasing my protein but I ate my protein on bread (sigh). My main problem is just the general feeling of unease and bad when I start warming up. I mean I go on my stationary bike for 2 mins...
  11. About 4 days ago I got really angry when someone did something annoying. The next day almost the exact same event happens and I was cool with it. My mom always thought that males around my age, mid 20's are just angry. My dad and my dad's mom both have anger issues too. Do you think my anger is normal, genetic, or caused by gluten intolerance? By really...
  12. I felt fatigued all of yesterday and today looks the same. From what I understand I haven't eaten gluten in 4 days or so. If the fatigue is caused by a gluten intolerance I wonder how long I can have symptoms after cutting out gluten.
  13. Good point Black Sheep, I would have to go back on gluten to get a test that has a good chance of a bad result. As of now I plan to try to eliminate all gluten for 3 months and then assess how I am doing. Love your avatar btw Black Sheep. Mushroom, I didn't know that suffers of gluten intolerance are more suspect-able to diabetes. Diabetes runs in my...
  14. Hmmm, well I'm not going to the doctor to get a bunch of blood tests. First I'm not insured, second off I feel lightheaded when I see blood, third I'm not sure if I like getting pricked with needles and the other inconveniences. Right now I'm having trouble eating at fast food restaurants with my friend and family. Not only am I forced to eat at home more...
  15. Anyone know if gluten intolerance or Celiac are hereditary? My dad has been complaining of allergies, particularly headaches when he stands up. Think my dad has some sort of adverse reaction to gluten like me?
  16. I've been reading the thread about the neuro/gluten connection and its scary. I'm feeling sad just thinking about the content. No wonder I didn't look into a gluten intolerance prior. Same with the GERD or acid reflux. I've had a vomit feeling when I belch from time to time for so many years I just thought it was normal. I guess the problem is assuming...
  17. Hey Black Sheep, I'm not sure what acid reflux is, I just assumed I was too young to get acid reflux. Anyways I read part of your post and then I was at the ice cream parlor and before I ate anything I belched, but not a full belch and I felt like vomit came up to my throat, yet I didn't get any gagging or urge to to vomit. Is the above acid reflux? ...
  18. I find it almost funny that people believe a test given by a doctor over the patient. I mean who is going to know you better than yourself? I do not need to know the exact number of antibodies in my system, to know whether I am adversely affected by gluten. The steak I cooked myself, so I know no soy sauce. I'll look into the Brags amino acids.
  19. I was wondering if gluten can really damage the brain? I was looking up gluten and I heard the term "neurotoxin" I googled "neurotoxin gluten" and found the following article: https://www.celiac.com/articles/1085/1/Gluten-Causes-Brain-Disease-By-Prof-Rodney-Ford-MB-BS-MD-FRACP/Page1.html Most of the doctors when I went to the hospital thought I was...
  20. A month and a half is not that long? Oh man I've been having lots of trouble with my social life trying to go gluten free. My friends tend to love baked goods. I can't believe how many of my favorite fast food restaurants serve gluten. Oddly I've never liked steak before and now I like steak a lot. Seems by eliminating gluten, other foods I suddenly like...
  21. Hmmm, I still have some symptoms, mostly upset digestive system as of right now. Is there any food I can eat that will help purge my system of gluten? I just have a little bit of gas and erratic elimination of waste. For example I'll drink 10oz of water over 2 hours and I'll have to pee 6 times in the same 2 hours. Wolicki "If you live in a gluteny...
  22. Hey, first post on these boards. I'm not sure if I'm Celiac, or if I have a gluten allergy, or gluten intolerance, or something else. About a year ago I got sick and I was taken to my doctor and my doctor said I had to go to the hospital. A lot of tests were run on me but the doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. I'm a young male and...
